It was a "vest tucked in your knickers kind of day" on Saturday. The sun was out but was pretty cold but that didn't stop some hardy souls turning up!
The big mound was moved by DJ Laings (Thank you again!) to a more suitable spot along side the fence and away from the beautiful wall. This will allow us to create some fantastic spaces such as sensory walls, relaxations spaces, maybe a kids corner, a mossy mat. The options are endless and lots of great ideas are being banded about.
We also got a further 8 tonnes of soil delivered free of charge from Cotside Quarry at Barry so that needed moving from bottom of the garden to the soil pile. Boy was that hard work! When you look at 8 tonnes of top soil, it doesn't look to be too much but when you're moving it from one spot to another..... well lets just say it was tougher than a tough day at the tatties! Anyway, with the help of some enthusiastic kids, it was all moved and ready to get mixed in with some manure. This is all in preparation for when it's time to start planting.
